Why are gaming platforms like Steam, Twitch, Discord, and Roblox being treated as Social Media under Australia’s new ban?
The Australian government now examines gaming platforms. This includes Steam, Twitch, Discord, and Roblox. A new law targets social interaction features on these sites. The law aims to protect young users from online risks. Companies must prove exemption or comply with age verification. The ban takes effect in December 2025. This creates a grey area for digital access.
